This application note presents the analog output voltage in a system and how to accomplish the output with the use of an MLX90614 IR thermometer. The document also describes the MLX90614 PWM output in ...

This application note tackles on how to protect analog output circuits and why they should be protected. As one of the necessary components in the system’s performance, analog output circuits should ...

In our previous two issues, we discussed troubleshooting digital output modules. Troubleshooting analog modules is a bit more complicated, for two reasons: Analog modules aren't on/off, as digital ...

So I'm building a new HTPC. Currently mine doesn't have enough HP to do hi-def well enough for my tastes. Anyway, I find myself slot limited as in my mobo has SPDIF output but via a header which ...

I've been searching through this forum trying to find a topic about this, my apologies if I'm asking what's been covered a million times already. I'm going to dump cable tv and go with hulu and ...

Microcontrollers are digital devices at heart. They can do fancy things like convert analog signals into a digital value but going the other direction is a bit tougher. Pulse-Width Modulation is used ...

In this hands-on course, you will learn how to design, build and use electronic systems that combine both analog and digital function. You will learn how to use sensors to capture real-world ...

Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...

Your USB audio port can be surprisingly useful--giving you even better sound than your computer's regular audio output. Here's how to use it. Eliot Van Buskirk Evolver.fm Editor Eliot Van Buskirk has ...

Sometimes standard inductive proximity sensors simply don't cut it. An example is the sensing of a rotary cam position. The oblong shape of the cam dictates use of a sensor able to detect different ...
